I plan on applying to Vassar College.
I hope to major in econ, continue on to graduate school, and work in sustainability/ethics consulting.
Here are some facts about me:
-I am a rising senior from South Carolina
-first-generation American, my parents are Colombian, I speak Spanish fluently
-Family income is about $80,000 for 3 people (in one of the more expensive parts of SC, though…)
- 4.994/5 gpa
-part of an early college program (I will have about 36 college credits done by the end of high school) at the local community college, plus I am part of the college’s Honors Program, Phi Theta Kappa, and I have on their Dean’s list for 4 consecutive semesters
-2 internships at the local Democratic party
-required to do 50 service hours per year (though I will end up with much more than that)
-art student and soon-to-be teacher’s assistant in art class
-attended Girls State program for American Legion
-President of the Academic Team
-Founder and Leader of high school’s recycling initiative, I was awarded a grant to do this
-Red Cross Club member
-National Honors Society
-regular volunteer at local arts center
I’d like some feedback in regards to my getting into VC and how much scholarship I might receive. Thanks for helping!
